This review is from: Macally USB AC Charger for SanDisk Sansa MP3 Players (Black) (Electronics)
I haven't had to use this item much since purchasing it a few months ago, but so far it has worked well. It charges my Sansa e280 as quickly as connecting the player to a computer USB port. I particularly liked that this came with the proper cable to connect the power supply to the player so I don't have to worry about losing the cable that came with the Sansa if I accidentally leave this somewhere.
What's puzzling about this product as well as many other accessories for the Sansa e200 line is that supplies seem to be extremely limited. I ended up buying the only remaining black Vizor in a local store because Amazon initially had it as a "preorder" for a long time and then had it listed at a ridiculously high price once they claimed to have it. This power supply was offered at a good price when it first came out, but now it seems like it's only available from Marketplace sellers at a significantly higher price. I don't know whether this lack of availability and erratic...Read more

I purchased this USB AC charger for my Sansa e250. It came with a USB cable to connect to the Sansa MP3 player. There is a LCD light on the charger and it lights up when plugged into an outlet. Charging time is quick. You can also listen to the MP3 player while charging - a big plus compared to charging with a PC.

The Macally charger worked fine the first couple of times I used it.
Most recently--when I plugged it in--I got a message on my Sansa e280's screen, something about the battery being incapable of being charged.
I don't have any problems charging my Sansa with SanDisk or Griffin brand AC chargers, nor with my SanDisk base station. No error messages; all of these work fine.
Would no longer dare plugging in the Macally charger...if it "thinks" my battery is defective (when these other products don't complain), I don't trust what effect it might have on the player.
I've had the same issue (others have mentioned) with the cable falling out. Not that it matters, for a charger I'll never again be using.
